Hi Giles!
I'm glad I spotted this thread. I sent an email to info@tincanapi.com with a related question, but the email address you provided (and the one published on your websites) doesn't work; the emails bounce.
Here's the response I wrote to the question you asked via email. It seems you've already figured out that upgrading your Moodle is a good idea, which is great.
"Thanks for your questions. I'm going to split your overall problem into two different questions rather than the three you asked, but I will covered your three questions in answering them.
1. Does Quizmaker generate the data that you need?
2. If it does, can you get it into Moodle?
I'm not familiar with Quizmaker at all, but if Articulate who make the product have told you that you need to use Tin Can in order for it to work on mobiles, I'll trust that. There's no reason why you can't send pass/fail information via Tin Can, but I don't know whether or not Quizmaker does, so that's another question to ask Articulate. Let's assume for now that you can get the data.
On the Moodle side, it's worth mentioning that Moodle 2.0 is now very old, having been released in November 2010 and support ending in July 2012. I recommend keeping your Moodle version updated; the current version is 2.9, though 2.7 is a long support release so may be a better option if your client is adverse to upgrades. You will find that the second plugin I'm about to mention doesn't work in Moodle 2.0 without some development work. That work might be as simple as editing the minimum required version setting or might be more involved.
Like many Moodle features, Tin Can support can be added via a plugin. There's two options:
- There is a SCORM Cloud Moodle plugin: http://scorm.com/scorm-solved/scorm-cloud-features/app-integrations/moodle-integration/ This allows you to upload SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, AICC or Tin Can packages in Moodle that are played in SCORM Cloud. Tracking data is sent back to Moodle. This is likely to be the easiest way of achieving what you want. It requires a SCORM Cloud license.
- The is another Tin Cab launch plugin that will work with any Learning Record Store, including the free LRS features incorporated into SCORM Cloud: https://github.com/garemoko/moodle-mod_tincanlaunch This does not require a SCORM Cloud license but is more likely to need you to do development work. In addition to the Moodle version issues, the plugin only pulls completion/non-completion information from the Learning Record Store and not pass/fail or score (you could use Moodle's completion to indicate pass/not-yet-passed though).
Does that answer your question? Do you have any follow up questions?"
Hope that helps! Please feel free to mail andrew.downes@tincanapi.com for any follow up questions; I don't subscribe to Moodle forums because of the volume of emails on unrelated threads it generates so may not see a response here.
